Čudovita bitja iz globin oceana

Raziskovalna podmornica Okeanos Explorer je v okviru projekta 2016 Deepwater Exploration of the Marianas 24.4.2016 v globini 3700 metrov posnela osupljivo lepe nove vrste meduz, ki si jih lahko ogledate na posnetku.

Scientists identified this hydromedusa as belonging to the genus Crossota. Note the two sets of tentacles — short and long. At the beginning of the video, you’ll see that the long tentacles are even and extended outward and the bell is motionless. This suggests an ambush predation mode. Within the bell, the radial canals in red are connecting points for what looks like the gonads in bright yellow.
